But when the mind turns inwards to repose in the self, it returns to the real source of all joy and establish in the shiva tattva. Inactivity comes when the mind depends on external sources for happiness and strays outwards through the senses. When Nataraja dance comes to an end, the entire creation will come to an end too. An eternal dance of consciousness is constantly in motion in the subtle world existing with this gross material world. Nataraja- The Lord of Dancers - Shiva tattva is the form of lord shiva as Nataraja- the lord of the dance. We take pride in the unique craftsmanship- it’s elegant and it’s flashy. Delightful cobra around Nataraja's waist is kundalini shakti, the soul-impelling cosmic power resident within all. Nataraja wears a snake coiled around his neck, arms, and other body parts. The outer edge is fire and the inner edge the waters of the oceans. The stunning fiery ring surrounding Shiva, Prahabhamandala, represents the universe. The Ganges nesting in Shiva's dreadlocks. The fourth hand gestures toward that holy foot in assurance that Shiva's grace is the refuge for everyone- dance, rejoice and celebrate.His hair locks seen in many strands. The uplifted leg is revealing grace, which releases the mature soul from bondage. The right leg, representing obscuring grace, stands upon the head of Apasmara Purusha, a soul symbolises ignorance. The other hand holds a flame( Agni ), which is destruction, the dissolution of form. The second hand is raised in blessing dispelling fear. The one-hand wields damru from which creation issues forth. We have to take the material and the spiritual aspects of life together, and a dance happens spontaneously.This gorgeous brass statue of Nataraja- King of Dance, is depicted as dancing in absolute bliss with four arms. Shiva tattva is the form of lord shiva as Nataraja- the lord of the dance.
